7 Days Later...

A lot can happen in a week. My bed was delivered on Monday morning, so I'm no longer sleeping on a crappy air mattress, which is nice. I'm still living out of boxes, but I may aqcuire more furniture this weekend when I visit the Healdsburg chapter of the Nagan clan. (Word is, they're prepping for a garage sale, and I get first dibs!) We'll see what actually fits in my tiny car. The rest of my earthly belongings will hopefully arrive tomorrow, via UPS, including my camera cable so I can finally upload some recent pictures.

I have a few more leads on jobs, but I don't want to jinx anything, so I'll stay mum about that for now. Trying to enjoy the time off, but it's hard to get used to, especially since I'm not sure how long it will last. So for now, I'm focusing on exploring the area...

Last night, I stuck around Berkeley and met up with new friends at Triple Rock Brewery where we enjoyed a nice rooftop happy hour (I highly recommend the Titanium brew, tasty!) Afterward, we headed down to the Gourmet Ghetto for a Thai dinner, and I quickly learned the layering lesson. From 6pm to 8pm it had dropped about 20 degrees, and I was without a sweater! Chilly! From now on, I'll be prepared.

Tonight I took my first BART ride in to the city and met up with a Target friend for dinner in the Marina neighborhood. She just started at Williams-Sonoma, and we walked past their offices near Fisherman's Wharf, right on the water. Nice.

Last weekend I went south to San Jose, and this weekend I'll be heading up north to Healdsburg, with a stop at the Schellville Grill to see Uncle Buck on the way. Apparently Nascar is in town, as is my cousin Johannah, and both are sure to leave the area wondering what hit it. In every picture I have of this girl, she looks drunk. Case in point:



Well Fuzz, Johannah and I will miss you this weekend, but it sounds like you're living it up in NYC, what's this I hear about an Entertainment Weekly Party tonight? Any celebrity sightings to report?

Greetings from Hong Kong. Wow - I've been out of the loop. So, what's the plan in San Fran? What type of job you looking for?
